You're asking for transparency (something common in the open source community) from a company which doesn't live in a transparent business environment (i.e., trade secrets, competition, etc). I just don't think the two can *always* be reconciled and to expect it so will certainly lead to unnecessary disappointment. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
